President Donald Trump was struck with ridicule on Thursday evening after the White House posted an image of the president as Superman.
“THE SYMBOL OF HOPE. TRUTH. JUSTICE. THE AMERICAN WAY. SUPERMAN TRUMP,” wrote the official White House social media account, attached to an edited image of Trump flying as Superman.
While the image was celebrated by one-time Superman actor Dean Cain, who responded with two laughing emojis, the majority of comments ridiculed the president.
“Guess the Epstein list is your kryptonite, huh?” reacted one user, receiving more than 4,000 likes, while a supporter of the president protested, “As a Trump voter, this is cringy as hell.”
Zeteo editor-in-chief and former MSNBC host Mehdi Hasan commented, “Just imagine the response if the Biden White House had posted something like this. But Trump is graded on some kind of never-seen-before curve and this craziness is normalized.”
“Not funny anymore. This stuff went from being ironic to a reminder we’re living under a third world regime,” complained columnist and Project 2025 contributor Richard Hanania, to which left-wing commentator Kyle Kulinski replied, “It was never ironic Trump was dead serious from day 1.”
Rep. Robert Garcia (D-CA) weighed in, “He’s literally Lex Luthor,” while dozens of social media users edited the image to make the Trump Superman obese.
President Trump received backlash from supporters this week after his administration concluded that the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein had no “client list,” that there was no evidence Epstein was blackmailing “prominent individuals,” and that there was no sign his alleged suicide was actually a murder, as some, including Epstein’s own brother, have suggested.
Asked by a reporter about Epstein this week, Trump snapped, “Are you still talking about Jeffrey Epstein? We have Texas, we have this, all of the things. Are people still talking about this guy, this creep? That is unbelievable!”
Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk told Newsmax he felt “profoundly confused” by the Trump administration’s handling of documents related to Epstein, while former Fox News host Tucker Carlson warned Trump could spark a “revolution” if he failed to release the promised documents related to the notorious pedophile.
